In This Article:

Ethereum

Ethereum fell by 0.70% on Friday. Following a 1.83% decline on Thursday, Ethereum ended the day at $1,528.82.

A bearish start to the day saw Ethereum slide to a late morning intraday low $1,442.32 before finding support.

Ethereum fell through the first major support level at $1,488 and the second major support level at $1,435.

Steering clear of sub-$1,400 levels, however, Ethereum bounced back to strike a late intraday $1,551.19.

While breaking back through the major support levels, Ethereum failed to break through the day’s pivot level at $1,556.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was up by 0.73% to $1,540.01 A bullish start to the day saw Ethereum rise from an early morning low $1,528.46 to a high $1,546.27.

Ethereum left the major support and resistance levels untested early on.

For the day ahead

Ethereum would need to avoid a fall through the pivot level at $1,507 to support a run at the first major resistance level at $1,573 and the 23.6% FIB of $1,579.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Ethereum to break out from Friday’s high $1,551.19.

Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and resistance at $1,600 would likely cap any upside.

In the event of a breakout, Ethereum could test resistance at $1,650 before any pullback. The second major resistance level sits at $1,616.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $1,507 pivot would bring the first major support level at $1,464 into play.

Barring an extended sell-off, however, Ethereum should continue to steer clear of sub-$1,400 levels. The second major support level sits at $1,399.
